Les Traîtres (Canada) is the Quebecois edition of the global franchise The Traitors. It is the 21st edition of the show to launch globally, with its first episode airing in April 8, 2024.
History[]
The existence of two Canadian versions of The Traitors - a nationwide English version and a Quebec-only French version - was announced on June 6, 2023 by Bell Media. It was also revealed that Canadian actor Karine Vanasse would host both the English and French editions, making her the first person to host multiple versions of the franchise.[1] On the same day, Noovo also revealed that their edition of Les Traîtres would feature 18 civilians competing for C$100,000.[2] Bell Media's Content Development and Programming VP Justin Stockman further revealed that Vanasse's contract had been finalised less than a week ago, with both versions slated to film back-to-back in Quebec over the summer, before they debuted in September 2023.[3]
Filming for the series took place in August 2023 after The Traitors Canada/Season 1. On August 30, 2023, Noovo confirmed that its airing would be pushed back from the original tentative schedule of September 2023 to sometime in early 2024 instead.[4]
In June 2024, it was announced through the show's social media channels that a second season would be produced. The premiere is scheduled sometime in early 2025[5].
